OWH MidWeek Throwdown

The mid-week throwdown over at the Stars and Stamps blog has a "thinking of you" challenge today. This card went together very quickly using scraps of DP and the SNSS Your Friendship stamp set for the floral image. I stamped the flower and leaves using Versafine Onyx Black ink on some PTI bitty box basics dp, then embossed it with clear detail ep and fussy cut them out. I added a big brad to the center. The sentiment is from MFP's Thankful Mums and Pumpkins stamp set. Embossing was done with the SU! square lattice ef.
This is the sentiment I use more than anything on my OWH cards, because I'm sure our service personnel is constantly thinking of their loved ones back home.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Lots of texture, pretty dots, and I really like the flower. The big brad is the center really sent it over the top. Super card, Carol!
